Rebirth 90: The Long Road to Finding a Son

There were an unusually long number of people queuing at the train station. After waiting for about twenty minutes, the queue in front of Qian Jincai and Qian Niandi had only just been shortened by half. Qian Longfei felt uncomfortable staying in Qian Niandi's arms because the weather was too hot, over thirty degrees.

Qian Longfei was clamoring to get out of bed. Qian Niandi was a little tired after all the hard work, and she hadn't eaten for almost a day, so she couldn't hold on any longer. She could only put Qian Longfei down and hold his little hand tightly, fearing that he would break free.

At the same time, she had to keep looking at Qian Jincai through the two rows of people in the middle. She was not worried about Qian Jincai, but was staring at Sun Xiaohao, afraid that Qian Jincai would be irresponsible and lose his brother. She only hated herself for not having three heads and six arms.

Suddenly, a crying voice rang out in front of the ticket window: "Where's my money? Where's my money? Oh my, who the hell stole my money?"

When the others heard this, they unconsciously covered their money hiding places tightly, fearing that they would also be robbed. At the same time, the people behind them also lost their patience due to queuing for too long, and someone said unkindly to the people in front: "Are you going to buy tickets or not? If not, make room!"

Some people also spoke up for the old lady who lost the money: "Everyone, please be more tolerant. She is so old and it is pitiful that she lost the money. Please be polite when speaking to her!"

Someone else retorted: "You are so kind, why don't you give her the money for the ticket? Why are you pretending to be a good person here?"

But soon, the ticket seller said, "Auntie, please look around to see if you forgot to put the money somewhere else. Let the people behind you buy tickets first!"

The old lady who lost the money was still standing there, crying, "I finally got here in line, but I didn't know I couldn't buy a ticket. Look, there's a big cut on my bag, and that's where I put my money. Woohoo! It's a hundred yuan, which my son just gave me. It wasn't easy for him to earn it! And I lost it like this. How can I go home?"

The ticket seller was also annoyed by the noise, and his tone hardened. He said: "This matter is your own negligence, it has nothing to do with us. If you don't have money to buy a ticket, go to the back first, don't waste other people's time!"

The old lady wanted to continue to linger in the front, but the people behind her would not let her do what she wanted. The people in front of her pushed her out of the line. She wanted to join the line again, but she had no money to buy a ticket, so it was useless to queue up. In the end, she could only cry and wipe her tears and leave the line.

Unexpectedly, as soon as she reached the back of the team, she was pulled by a small hand. It was Sun Xiaohao who had been observing the situation.

She looked up at the old lady and said, "Grandma, don't cry. My uncle has money. I'll ask him to buy you a ticket!"

The old lady looked at the plump and fair Sun Xiaohao and cried a little less. She said, "Good boy, I know you have good intentions. Alas, it's also my fault. I didn't know there were bad guys in the train station and I didn't protect my bag well."

Sun Xiaohao continued, "Grandma, you have to be more careful next time. Do what my uncle did and sew the money into his pants. Who can steal it? When we came from home, my grandma thought about the possibility of being stolen. She gave my uncle several hundred yuan, leaving enough for the ticket and sewing the rest into his pants!"

The old lady quickly covered Sun Xiaohao's mouth and said to him, "Don't tell anyone about this, or you'll be targeted by bad guys. Grandma can't buy a ticket today, I have to find the police and ask them to return my money. You should also go find your family quickly and don't get lost!"

Sun Xiaohao watched the old lady go to find the train station staff and did not follow her. Instead, he walked forward along the line and found Qian Jincai. He said, "Dad, an old lady just lost her money. Did you know that? You better keep an eye on your money. If you lose it, we won't be able to go to grandma's house!"

Qian Jincai was getting a little impatient waiting in line, and said unhappily, "I know, I know, do I need you to remind me?"

Seeing that Qian Jincai had lost all patience, Sun Xiaohao said, "Dad, are you tired? How about I help you line up and you go find a place to sit and rest for a while!"

Although Qian Jincai also wanted to find a place to rest, he really didn't trust Sun Xiaohao, a young child, to queue up, so he said, "Forget it, you are the only one who can queue up. You will be dragged out in less than two minutes. Go do what you need to do and don't run around. I won't be responsible if you get lost."

Sun Xiaohao could only shut up and stare at the actions of a person. Just now, under Sun Xiaohao's watch, this person cut a hole in a person's purse. Before Sun Xiaohao could see clearly how he did it, the money in the purse had been taken out and quickly stuffed into his own pocket. This seemed to be the same method used to steal the old lady's money, and the person being stolen was unaware.

Just now when Sun Xiaohao was talking to the old lady, that person was very close to them. He listened to what Sun Xiaohao said and even looked at Sun Xiaohao on purpose. When Sun Xiaohao went to find Qian Jincai, that person followed behind.

Soon, someone squeezed through the line and pushed Qian Jincai back, saying, "Brother, please let me pass!" Then he cut in line in front of Qian Jincai with no intention of leaving.

Qian Jincai was very dissatisfied with this sudden attack. Seeing that the opponent was thin and weak, and a head shorter than him, he instantly gained confidence and hit the opponent back with his hand, saying, "You don't have eyes, do you? There are so many people queuing behind you, and you dare to cut in line? Go to the back!"

Without warning, the short guy yelled, "Brother, someone hit me!"

As the voice fell, two strong men came over and dragged Qian Jincai out of the line and all the way out of the ticket hall. When they got outside, one of the strong men loosened Qian Jincai's collar, pushed him to the ground, and said, "Open your dog eyes and look carefully. This is my brother. Do you dare to bully him? You have to ask me first if I agree or not."

The strong man then said to the short man, "Where did that bastard hurt you just now? Is it serious?"

The short man immediately fell to the ground, unable to get up, and shouted in pain. The man who had just walked out of the ticket hall happily looked like he had suffered a fatal injury in the blink of an eye.

Qian Jincai then realized that he had encountered a gang, but if he were to fight the skinny guy alone, he would still be confident of winning. Now with the addition of two strong men, he was afraid that he would be beaten into a meat pie.

After recognizing the current situation, Qian Jincai immediately gave in: "Brother, let's talk it over, don't do it!"

The other party was very satisfied with Qian Jincai's cowardly look and said, "We are not unreasonable brothers, but my brother's injury cannot be in vain. What do you think we should do?"

Qian Jincai naturally knew what the other party meant and said, "You, what do you think we should do?"

The strong man said: "Eight hundred yuan, we will take my brother to the hospital ourselves, and it won't take up your time!"
